Focus-plus-context Techniques

Focus-Plus-Context Techniques is a visualization approach that belongs to the class of methods designed to simultaneously present a detailed focal region and its surrounding contextual information, distinguished by its ability to preserve spatial relationships and scale through geometric or visual distortions, thereby supporting navigation and comprehension in complex hierarchical multivariate or network structures.
